The ONE person Bumped in 5.5

We were talking around the club to day about the ONE person who was bumped in 5.5 USTA. Speculating on how he got bumped, how old he was, obviously winning all of his matches, what he's going to do now...try futures or what?

There is a LOT more tennis then just league tennis.....

Which is obvious because there are a LOT more 5.0's then happen to play league tennis.

He can probably just play Open level tournaments. In a lot of areas it's not like they are all 6.0 or better anyway.

He is a good friend of mine. He got bumped up because he is friends with a former pro players and they teamed up for all the money tournaments around the PNW. He isn't very happy about his new rating, since now there aren't any local leagues he can play in. At least last year he could play 10.0 mixed.

They should bring back the open level league then.

I know it may not seem fair, but if you start letting people that are not 5.5 play in the 5.5 league, then why even bother to have a 5.5 league?, just call it open level.....
